Satchel Messenger Style-Brown leaves with Leather Pockets

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:29:19 -0400

$48.00
An ample bag that can carry books, clothes or work as a messenger style baby bag. I have the same sized bag and have used it for carrying a three ring binder and text books to and from college for over a year now. Stylish and durable!

This bag is made almost entirely from furniture showroom fabrics. I was lucky enough to know a designer who was generous with the fabrics and now I ask them what they want to be and they tell me: handbag, satchel or pillow.

This gorgeous fabric wanted to be a Satchel with leaves and leather pockets.

The main body in the front under the tan and brown leather pockets is a taupe colored corduroy fabric. The top flap and most of the back is a chocolate brown with the most awesome tree branches and big leaves on them in mauve/apricot, green and gold. There are also the coolest circles with circles inside of them in another color that matches the leaves and trees.

The one long shoulder strap is a patchwork strap made up of 3 different fabrics: chocolate corduroy, sage-ish and taupe fabrics with three vintage buttons added for more character.

The interior is a cream cotton with two gold/tan big pockets for more storage. There is also a D ring on the outside for whatever you would like to clip to it.

* Fully lined
* 2 interior pockets
* 2 exterior leather pockets
* D ring exterior
* made with love
* lissilulu tag sewn on

Romantique -- Sunset Dreams in Vintage Crushed Velvet

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:28:56 -0400

$92.00
Hello, My name is Sunset Dreams. I am from the family of Romantique Handbags. I started out as a bed covering. In my prime of life I proudly covered beds. Recently I was given as a gift from a mother to her daughter. This mother knew that her daughter would love me and give me new life. The daughter did indeed love me and waited and waited until she knew just the perfect design to recreate me into. The waiting was almost unbearable!

My gorgeousness now more than makes up for the wait I had to endure though. :o) I have had a complete make-over. I could have my very own reality TV show; "Beautiful bags - from rags to bags"!

My designer chose my colors because they remind her of the Western Washington sunsets. :o)

I am now ready to grace your arm or the arm of a very special friend. You can walk proudly with me on your arm and be the reason for *bag envy* everywhere you go. My velvet is so wonderful to pet, you can almost hear me purr.

Details::
*top-stitching
*buttons and ribbon embellishments may vary on back of handbag
*reinforced seams
*fully lined with an interior pocket
*magnetic snap closure
*two shoulder straps
*over 60 handcut and handstitched roses on the front

Measurements::
*shoulder straps = 25 inches long
*across top = 15 inches
*width of fullest part of pleated part = 18 1/2 inches
top to bottom = 17 1/2

One large, romantic, luxurious & durable bag!

Because of my specialness I would prefer not to agitate in a washer or spin in a dryer. If I get dirty a moist cloth can be used to wash me up.

I will be made especially for you after you order me. I will take between 7 to 10 days to be created.

Thank you for looking!

**inspiration for the handpieced roses is adapted from the book "felt furnishings, 25 accessories for contemporary homes."
